I’m still overwhelmed because of how good this moment was. And I thought Vax'ildan's and Keyleth's story couldn’t be more tragic.

Cuffed

Dainty gold cuffs upon my wrists do sit

encircling this pulsing life of mine

for never will I seek another fit.

For you, I’ll walk this unbreakable line.

I’ll tiptoe, stumble, skip, and crawl this path.

We’ll try not to leave our thoughts unspoken.

I should hate them, all those who showed me wrath…

instead I’ll follow you, my heart open.

Is choosing to go through motions with you

just another emotion I go through?

The world does spin in such a way as this:

That every person has a name and place,

But there is always someone left to miss.

It’s all too fast, and everything’s amiss,

And no one knows your struggle or your pace…

The world does spin in such a way as this.

Too many fade into the dark abyss,

So please remember that you take up space,

‘Cause there is always someone left to miss.

Even as we strive for perfect bliss,

We all forget this isn’t just a race.

The world does spin in such a way as this.

Please do not go, for that would be remiss,

Just take my hand and hold it to your face -

‘Cause there is always someone left to miss.

We all should take more time to reminisce,

And give the person next to us some grace.

The world does spin in such a way as this:

That there is always someone left to miss.

"It seemed to roar from thirty years of frustration, confusion, denial, love, yearning...yearning for what? An anchor. A harbor. A sense of safety. A sense of identity. Yes, I can relate. Yes, this is terrain I know well. I felt Batman rising from deep within." -"Finding Batman" by Kevin Conroy (from DC Pride 2022)

In memory of Kevin Conroy, I'm reposting his story in his own words. We were so lucky to have Kevin share a piece of his soul with us through playing Batman for over thirty years, and his loss is heartbreaking for an entire generation who grew up with him as our Batman. I'm incredibly grateful to have lived in a world where he got the opportunity to play that role for us for so long and in so many different productions. RIP to a good man, a legend, and one of the most iconic voice actors of all time.

RIP Kevin Conroy (1955-2022).

He was the voice of Batman for more than a generation of fans and has left an indeliable mark on the character and on the audience.

His body/soul may have passed away but many of us will continue to hear his voice as we read Batman comics.

For so many of us he is to Batman what Chris Reeves is to Superman and what RD Jr is to Iron Man. The iconic and definitive actor for the role.

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. We’re not sure if that fact is true or not but when Steve Van Doren rolls up in the Vans Mobile you can bet it’s going to be an epic one! Waffles are what these guys have been doing best since ‘66, granted they’re usually on the bottom of a skate shoe. Batter was poured, syrup was dripped and breakfast was served for the DLX crew. Our guy Brad Handel managed to snap a few photos between stuffing his face. Thanks again to Steve and everyone at @vansskate!
